AEW International Champion MJF is set to defend his title on CMLL grounds.
MJF defeated Will Ospreay to win the AEW International Title earlier this week on AEW Dynamite 250.
In a video message that aired on the latest episode of CMLL Viernes Espectacular, MJF stated that he will defend the AEW International Title at the upcoming Viernes Espectacular event on Friday, August 2. The show will emanate from Arena Mexico in Mexico City.
MJF said, “I’m going to take it to those masked morons in Mexico! I’m the greatest wrestler in the world from the only country that matters: the good old U-S-of-A.”
CMLL has yet to announce MJF’s opponent for the title.
